They followed him around enough and impressed them with their cuteness so he and his other lackeys were into making their video. Not to mention it being 1986 and everything being completely bananas. meh. apparently Warhol just thought they were really “cute kids.” They followed him around enough and impressed them with their cuteness so he and his other lackeys were into making their video.
